Bloodlines is a hybrid dance performance crossed with a medical lecture, created by drama lecturer Dr Alex Mermikides and her brother Dr Milton Mermikides (Music, University of Surrey). The project was inspired by their experience of deadly blood cancer, which Milton developed in 2004 and of the bone marrow transplant, donated by Alex, which saved his life. The event also features presentations by the creators and their collaborators and an opportunity to discuss the work and ask questions.
